Please post any questions that you may have. I know it's a sickness, but I enjoy discussing financial economics.:)

Steve

I know this is an old thread. There was a link to it at the bottom of another i was in so i wanted to go back to school and read your economic analysis from a retired college professor. You did it exactly like i would have if i could remember the formulas. I now would have to go and look them up. You did a good job and it took me back to college. I look at things this way but often dont go into as much detail as you did here although i do recognise it as the proper way to totally look at things. It did work out to a low allualized interest rate. I would of suspected just looking at it to be in the 5 or 6% range, but im just a novice! I only went as far as a masters.

Thanks for the trip back to college, econ classes. Took me back to Dr. Smathers, or Dr. Strakas classes back at Clemson!

Steve, are you using an Adam Smith picture (the Father of Economics) as your avatar ? Pretty cool :D Thanks for the example (several years old), it is becoming a useful comparison for me at this time.
